Kane - His debut caused me to assume he would be nose to nose with The Undertaker through his career.

The Boogeyman - Quick wins over guys like Booker T and JBL convinced me he was going to be in the main event picture.

Owen Hart - After Bret left for WCW, Owen could have beaten Shawn Michaels with the Sharp Shooter if it weren't for interference from Triple H. After that, he was stuck at mid-card.

The British Bulldog - Davey Boy seemed to have a similar upbringing as Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels, and I thought he'd at least have a world title run.

Hardcore Holly - I wasn't too thrilled with it, but I thought he was going to be a main event player after he returned from a broken neck and began feuding with Brock Lesnar and the Big Show.

Rikishi - Again, I wasn't too thrilled, but after being revealed as the one who ran over Stone Cold Steve Austin, I thought we'd see him have a monster heel run.
